Boring, redundant and quite honestly juvenile for a scholar at the university level. There is no coherent argument, and her analysis (or lack thereof) is elementary. Although she does make an original contribution to the literature on female Aboriginal leadership, this book is not recommended for a scholarly or public audience.
